5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth it....., October 1, 2000

I bought this CD based on the strength of the reviews written here, not fully knowing what to expect. Despite the fact that I am a fan and own a copy of Borrasca, a wonderful CD in its own right, I wasn't sure how I would feel about this particular collection. After listening to it only once, I was completely swept away. Unlike the more vibrant and catchy tunes of Borrasca, The Hours Between Day + Night is more mellow, smooth and laced with a very lovely jazz feel that blends seamlessly into a unique sound. With 19 songs, one of which is a Spanish language remake of Marvin Gaye's Mercy, Mercy Me (The Ecology), it is not only one of the longest CDs this listener has come across, but it's well worth the price. Do yourself a favor and add this to your collection. It's well worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing! Ottmar's greatest triumph!, June 6, 2002

I happen to be quite a Liebert aficianado and I think that this album represents the hands-down best work he has ever done in his career. The haunting beauty of his Spanish guitar is here tempered with a charming lightheartedness that was no doubt inspired by the East-Indian locale. Works such as Neon-Ghost Sensei provide just the right touch of the experimental Ottmar that we experience in Opium. Alternately fiery and mellow, but always beautiful, Ottmar's composition and playing here display their strongest synergy. I HIGHLY recommend it, if you buy just one instrumental album in your life, you're reading its review.

5.0 out of 5 stars THIS MUSIC UNFOLDS!, July 7, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Hours Between Night + Day (Audio CD)

Of all the music Ottmar has produced over the past 10 years, this is his finest. The musical and emotional depth of this work is remarkable. Upon the first listening I found myself becoming more and more engaged as I was being drawn through this musical journey "...between night & day." It's even better after repeated listenings! I'm still listening 5 years later. -Mark
